Item description
A dive into the world of endangered animals is not always a pleasant
journey. This project-based learning resource focuses on exploring
possibilities and solutions. A range of animals are used as examples and
there are cards that can be used as inspiration for storytelling as
well as research. Teaching students to care about endangered animals is
one of the most important things we can do. By focusing their attention
on possibilities and solutions your students may feel that there is
possible to help endangered species rather than be overwhelmed with
negative thoughts.

Reviews of other Think Dive – Sparking Children’s Thinkibility products:
Project based learning: Bats, STEAM, Biomimicry
“This
product is absolutely the favorite one I have purchased all fall! I
love the information that is provided about bats – just enough to
intrigue and encourage higher level thinking. There are graphic
organizers, worksheets, and subtle suggestions to help young learners
perform at their best! And best of all, it stretches their
creativity! Thanks for such an amazing resource!”
Project based learning: Mammals, Reptiles & Amphibians – STEAM, Biomimicry, NGSS
“Used this for a Kindergarten STEAM club unit and it was a hit!”
Why am I qualified to write these biomimicry resources? I
was a member of BEN – Biomimicry Education Network – and a curator
of educational resources at BEN. I am the author of the book
Biomimicry with Theo & Tuva: Nature spotting inspires wild ideas.
In 2015, I completed a course in Biomimicry: A Sustainable Design
Methodology at Minneapolis College of Art and Design. I took
part in the Biomimicry Design Challenge in 2021.
